The Similarities Between Christopher Columbus And Marie Curie

Christopher Columbus and Alvez Nunez Cabeza de Vaca were both explorers for Spain, but under different rulers and different times. The more famous, Christopher Columbus, came before de Vaca’s time. Columbus sailed a series of four voyages between 1492 and 1504 in search for a route to Asia which led accidentally to his discovery of new land inhabited with Indians. Christopher sailed under the Spanish monarchs, Ferdinand and Isabella for his journey to the “Indies,” whom he was loyal to by claiming everything in their name. De Vaca , followed in Christopher’s footsteps and journeyed to Hispanionola for Spain’s emperor, Charlves V, the grandson of Ferdinand and Isabella. Both, Columbus and de Vaca composed a series of letters addressing the

How well known people are effects how influential you are, and while these 2 characters from history are not as influential as LeBron James and trending pop starts are in their time, they’ve used their influential abilities in positive ways that affects everyone today. Susan B. Anthony and Martin Luther King Jr. are both amazing leaders of the suffrage and civil rights movements. Anthony with Women’s rights, and King with African American’s rights took Civil Rights as a whole a few great leaps forward; brought forth an era where the Civil Rights Movement is something almost everyone believes in, that equal rights should be something everyone has. In these great leaps forward, King and Anthony have used their influential abilities to help

Christopher Columbus and John Smith are both similar in the fact that they made their kin very proud and became famous of their accounts of unexplored territory. Though their ideas of what to do with what they encountered was different, they both were very brave men. They were different in a way though. Columbus believed that there was a great value in terms of wealth to the natural resources he saw on the islands and he used a different rhetoric to explain it. John Smith saw economic growth possibilities in the fertile New England area that had a vast amount of natural resources, he also valued different commodities than Columbus.

What is the same about Christopher Columbus and Marie Curie? Well they both had a dream and went through tough times to try to accomplish them. columbus slept in a small cabin in a rocking boat eating germs. Marie curie touched toxins with her bare hands just to pursue their dreams.Both of

Also Christopher spent lots of time at the sea sailing for Spain and claiming land, gold and spices. And Marie Curie spent lots and lots of her time in her lab working with her radium and not with her family. Christopher Columbus went on his explorations during the 1400s and the 1500s,and Marie Curie did her lab experiments in the 1800s and the 1900s. So they were very separated in time and there personalities are very different too. Also Christopher Columbus enjoyed exploring and discovering the world unlike Marie Curie enjoyed studying and testing her radium

Someone who has impacted not only history, but nations, music, and spirits world wide, is Bob Marley. Bob Marley is the founding face of reggae music. A man born to nothing and believes that life is his riches. That no amount of money could ever amount to someones soul. His motives were peace, equality, respect, and love for thy woman and man. That all races are as one. Not only did his motives and motto affect history, but his music did too. HIs music moved souls and spirits, preaching about love, kindness, children, intelligence, loyalty, family, god, nature, beauty, and everything that is positive that the world should be focusing on. His biggest impact on history was him on concert bringing the two opposing leaders of two different nations

Unlike Marie de France, Clarinda does not set forth a name for herself, but they both speak about themselves in the third person. There are different explanations for this action, but one includes that this in some way gives the poem an authority that it could not have without this introduction that either is or seems to have been written by someone else. Marie de France also finds herself often being debated about in terms of gender, and some people use the idea of a “female style of writing” to discuss the gender of both poets. Of course, there are often debates about what exactly a “female style of writing” is, but there does seem to be similar trends is the poet of female writing including the alteration of a classic story and the use

Radiation is energy that comes from a source and travels through some material or through space. Pierre and Marie Curie were partners that had both become interested in the discovery Henri Becquerel made which was the discovery of radioactivity. Marie and Pierre Curie came up with the term "radioactivity" to describe Becquerel's discovery. Marie and Pierre extracted uranium from ore and compared the pure uranium to the extracted uranium ore samples. They found that the uranium ore samples contained more radioactivity. Marie's research concluded that the two uranium ore samples, pitchblende and chalcocite, were more radioactive than the pure uranium and so because of the high radioactivity of both of the samples there had to be additional radioactive

Many names come to mind when contemplating people who had achieved more than the average Joe throughout their lives, such as; Aristotle, Alexander the Great, and Plato. Perhaps the most influential person to ever have lived was a man by the name of Leonardo da Vinci. In awe with his works at a young age, I have always considered da Vinci to be one of the greatest minds on Earth. Some would argue that he was not as accomplished as he seemed (this having been a previous argument in my life) since he did not exactly focus his expertise on any one category. There is some truth to this claim, for example da Vinci was an exceptional painter. Had he focused all his time on his paintings, not only would we have more

Albert Einstein, Robin Williams, Shakespeare, every one of the people have greatly influenced the world today. Among the list of extremely influential people lies, Michael Jackson. Michael Jackson was born in 1958 in Gary, Indiana. Jackson was a man of many talents, an entertainer, a philosopher, a recording artist, and the list goes on. With his extravagant personal life, his contribution to music and fashion, and his widely known dance moves/skills, he turned out to be the most influential person in popular culture for over forty years. Throughout his life, Michael Jackson heavily influenced today’s top artists, the technological realm of music videos and the TV industry, and heavily impacted charities.

Significant historical figures are the people who have made a major impact on our world and shaped it to be what it is right now. Most of these figures have had nothing but a much needed positive effect. Mother Teresa is Catholic nun who dedicated her whole life to helping others. Mother Teresa’s mission would be a lot easier because of the technological advancements, transport system we have available today, even though she would have had some problems continuing her work due to the fact that she wouldn’t have money or qualifications, we would

Looking down at us from Mount Rushmore should be people who we as Americans and citizens of the world look up to and truly respect. If I got the privilege of recreating this patriotic monument I would have to choose four people who I believe went against all odds to do what they did to change the world. At 19 years old Malala Yousafzai has already gotten the Nobel Peace prize and has lead the world to understand the power of education. She was just a kid when she started to stand up for female’s rights to education which is a truly inspiring role model for youth around the world. Another women who had to fight for her education was Elizabeth Blackwell. Despite having no women in the medical field Elizabeth kept pushing for her education. She

Then there is writer and philosopher Voltaire, who is commonly known “the Father of the Enlightenment.” Without Voltaire our society would not be where it is today. He made very difficult issues easy for the public to understand. In doing this he advanced this world to a level that they have never seen before. He advocated old order and brought in a new order based on reason, science, and tolerance. With his rationalism our society was able to advance more quickly then ever before, and it led to a new way of life.
